Datasheet Extract
| Recombinant Human MCP-2 (CCL8) | |
| Alternate names | Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-2, CCL8, HC14
|
| Background | The MCP proteins belong to the CC chemokine family, and signal through CCR2 and, with the exception of MCP-1, other CCR receptors. The MCP proteins chemoattract and activate monocytes, activated T cells, basophils, NK cells, and immature dendritic cells. The MCP family cross reacts across species. |
| Source | E. coli |
| Format | State: Lyophilized purified fraction (>98% pure by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses) wit no preservatives. Endotoxinlevel: < 0.1 ng per µg (1EU/µg) Reconstitution: Restore in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at 2-8°C for 1 week or -20°C for future use. |
| Description | Recombinant human MCP-2 is a protein containing 76 amino acid residues including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in the CC chemokines. AASequence: QPDSVSIPIT CCFNVINRKI PIQRLESYTR ITNIQCPKEA VIFKTKRGKE VCADPKERWV RDSMKHLDQI FQNLKP Biological Activity: Determined by its ability to chemoattract human peripheral blood monocytes using a concentration range of 10.0-100.0 ng/ml. Molecular weight: 8.9 kDa |
| Add. Information | Centrifuge the vial prior to opening! |
| Storage | Store the lyophilized protein at -20°C.
Reconstituted MCP-2 should be stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20°C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Shelf life: one year from despatch. |
